    Viewed Waymarks, etc.

    Perhaps this has already been discussed in another thread; my apologies if I'm repeating something.

    Has anyone else noticed that their viewed Waymark list is several months old? When I click on the Waymarks tab and scroll down to "My Recently Viewed Waymarks," the most current one is from four months ago. I know I've had views since then, because I've had visits posted and I've had people email me about some Waymarks. Also the list of "Waymarks I've Recently Viewed" is incredibly out of date.

    It's not just my Waymarks. The section for "Most Viewed Waymarks" says that none have been viewed in the last 24 hours, last 7 days and last 30 days. I find it impossible to believe that *nobody's* Waymarks have been viewed in the past month!

    I really like knowing which of my Waymarks are being viewed. To me, that's as nice as a logged visit.

    Honestly, between the forums becoming increasingly difficult to access (let alone post to), rather sluggish performance when creating a Waymark, and features not working, it's getting more and more frustrating to participate in Waymarking.

    Re: Viewed Waymarks, etc.

    The view counters were turned off a few months ago and it was communicated here in the forums.  They were turned off because they were causing performance problems. 

    I agree these are interesting  statistics to have, it would be nice to see how many came from internal and how many came from external

    Thanks for the info. I missed that earlier in the forums. Considering that it has taken me six tries to get into the forums to see if there was a response, it's no wonder that I missed it earlier Sad

    Do you know if there are plans to bring it back? If they aren't planning on returning the view counts, they should delete that whole section from the page, IMHO.

    I know I probably sound cranky, but geez Louise, the performance issues are getting very frustrating.
